Operating in the Southern Ontario Junior A Hockey League for six seasons beginning in 1970-71, the Welland Sabres advanced to the league's semifinals in four different seasons. This Sabres jersey has a partial Wilson label affixed to the collar, with the vintage garment measuring-out to roughly a size 52. Styled with a chain-stitched team crest, "18" in layered tackle twill is sewn to the sleeves and verso. Sporting good wear from game use including pilling and material pulls, there are a pair of resulting holes over the left sleeve, with part of the right cuff partially unraveled. The threading over part of the "8" on the left sleeve has come loose, with a small team repair to the left shoulder. Players that wore the #18 jersey for the Sabres during the era include Andre Turcotte (1971-72) and Randy Montgomery (1972-73). We should also note that while we were unable to verify, according to our consignor, the jersey originates from the Buffalo Sabres.
